Donald Mitchell Brown, Jr. (born June 3, 1960) is an American author, attorney, and former United States Navy JAG Officer. He has published fifteen books on the United States military, including eleven military-genre novels, [1] the best known of which is Treason (2005) in which radical Islamic clerics infiltrate the United States Navy Chaplain Corps. [2] [3] He has published four works of military nonfiction, including his national bestseller, The Last Fighter Pilot: The True Story of the Final Combat Mission of World War II (2017). [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] Brown may be best known for his work as legal counsel to Army Lieutenant Clint Lorance, who had been convicted of murder by a military court-martial at Fort Bragg when his platoon became involved in a firefight in Afghanistan in 2011, and his authorship of the 2019 book Travesty of Justice: The Shocking Prosecution of Lt. Clint Lorance. On November 15, 2019, President Donald Trump pardoned Lorance, [9] and the book is considered to be a factor in leading to that pardon. [10] Between the release of Travesty of Justice on March 31, 2019, and Lorance's pardon on November 15, 2019, Brown made numerous national television appearances and penned a number of national Op-eds urging President Trump to free and exonerate Lieutenant Lorance. [11] On the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving, November 27, 2019, Brown and Lorance appeared on Hannity, the nightly national broadcast on the Fox News Channel to discuss the presidential pardon and release. [12] [13]

Early life and education

Brown was born in Plymouth in Washington County, North Carolina, on June 3, 1960. [14] He received a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and a Juris Doctor degree from Campbell University's Norman Adrian Wiggins School of Law.

Brown spent five years as a military attorney in the United States Navy Judge Advocate General's Corps. [15] He earned a nonresident certificate in International Law from the Naval War College, and published a legal position paper in the Navy's Law Review on how to defend against temporary injunctions filed against the military. [16] He remained on inactive status with the Navy until 1999, when he separated from the service as a lieutenant commander. [17] Brown also worked as a special assistant to the United States Attorney for the Southern District of California. [17]

He is currently licensed to practice in North and South Carolina, and is the owner of Brown & Associates, PLLC, a law firm located in Charlotte, North Carolina, [18] where he practices law in the areas of civil litigation, military law, criminal defense, family law, and estate planning.

In 2018, Brown joined the legal team as one of four military JAG officers representing Army First Lieutenant Clint Lorance, and in 2019 published the book Travesty of Justice: The Shocking Prosecution of Lt. Clint Lorance. Lorance had been convicted for second-degree murder in 2013 by a military court-martial, when American paratroopers in his platoon on his command fired on three men on a motorcycle in Afghanistan who were speeding towards their position. In Travesty of Justice, Brown laid out the defense contentions, including the claim that Army prosecutors withheld biometrics evidence proving that the motorcycle riders were enemy Taliban bombmakers. In a series of national television appearances and Op-eds for Fox News in the summer of 2019, Brown pressed Lorance's case further, urging President Donald Trump to provide presidential relief for Lorance, and accused the military justice system of corruption for the prosecutions of Lorance, Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher, and Army Green Beret Matt Golsteyn.

Brown is the author of Zondervan Publishing's Navy Justice series with the fiction works Treason (2005), Hostage (2005), Defiance (2006), Black Sea Affair (2008), [28] and Malacca Conspiracy (2010), in which terrorists launch attacks against oil tankers in the Malacca Straights. [29] [30] [31]

In his Pacific Rim series, Brown wrote his sixth novel Thunder in the Morning Calm (2011) on the issue of whether American servicemen who were listed as MIAs may still be alive in North Korea since the Korean War. Brown stated in interviews that he wrote it to bring attention to the issue. [32] His seventh novel Fire of the Raging Dragon, a geopolitical action-thriller set in the South China Sea, was released through HarperCollins publishers in November 2012. [33] [34] [35]

Brown wrote Call Sign Extortion 17: The Shoot-Down of SEAL Team Six (2015) on the August 2011 downing of a United States Army CH-47 Chinook helicopter in the War in Afghanistan which killed the air crew along with seven Afghan military personnel and 17 members of Navy SEAL Team Six. [36] Brown retells the wartime action, explains the life stories of the service members killed that day, and examines the official military explanation of the incident contained in the infamous Colt Report, arguing that series of events were gross incompetence or a massive cover-up. [37]
